I’m sorry but if you’re not playing at least one of those games every year, you are the minority. Those people who constantly buy and play games are more of a “gamer” than a judgemental arse like yourself. Those games you criticise are by FAR the most played and bought games every year, played by tens of millions of people - the majority of gamers.

People like you give “gamers” a bad name.

You just proved their point...

[-] GoatSynagogue@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Nothing I said remotely proves his point.

Officially the first account I block on lemmy. Ain't no way this isn't AI-generated rage bait.

[-] GoatSynagogue@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Oh no, whatever will I do…..

How are they giving gamers a bad name? Even assuming they're wrong, how does that work? They give gamers a bad name because they got a statistic wrong? Makes no fucking sense.

[-] feetandballs@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 weeks ago

They're gatekeeping gaming and calling people who don't interact with games the way they do morons. It's childish and, whether it's wrong or not, rude. The upvotes are what gives gamers a bad name, though, not his statement.

They just called the MAJORITY of the video game buying population “fucking morons”, and “nOt ReAl GaMeRs” because they have a different opinion to them, even though that opinion is the overwhelmingly popular opinion.

You don’t see how that gives “gamers” a bad name? Gatekeeping “gamers” to the tiny minority of people who buy physical games, don’t buy the biggest and most played games, and calling everyone else a fucking moron?

Ahahah!

No, no... you can't read that well, can you?

Try again buddy, go ... slower this time, understand how qualified statements work, and keep in mind the entire context of what I said.

You've concluded that I said a whole bunch of things that I did not say.

Apparently I've triggered you quite seriously... I wasn't intending to, but uh... yeah, try again, try to read the words that I actually said.

[-] GoatSynagogue@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

If your first rebuttal has you calling someone “triggered”, while offering no counter points, it’s safe to say you have already lost.

[-] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 weeks ago

Got it, understood, you can't read.

Sorry about that for you, good luck with life.

[-] GoatSynagogue@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

You’re basically just following the “what to say when you’re losing an online argument” guide 🤣

[-] feetandballs@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 weeks ago

I don't understand why people are piling on and blocking you. The comment you're replying to is whiny gatekeeping with a name-calling bow on top. They accuse this group of excluding themselves from "gamers" while calling them stupid and criticizing the way they entertain themselves. I don't know that I'd want to be in a group that talks about me like that, either.

[-] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 weeks ago

Oh my god one of you actually showed up!

I'd ask you what its like to so thoroughly lack self awareness, but unfortunately, you wouldn't be able to tell me, by definition.

Also just no, your 'facts' are bullshit.

You know what category of games consistently earn the most revenue?

Mobile games. Cell phone games. That's over half of the money getting spent on video games.

The majority of gamers, people who play video games, people who spend money on video games... they play gacha games on phones... they're not perennial Madden/FIFA/COD players.

So if you don't have a gacha game waifu... you're actually in the minority too.

So yeah... fundamentally ignorant, extremely overconfident... wanna check any more of those boxes, buddy?

Just imagine me bouncing a ball off of your forehead repeatedly, I'm sure that'll put you in the right mind state for this.

[-] GoatSynagogue@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

We’re talking about console and pc players, not mobile. Did you not know that they are separated out in all of the reports? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[-] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 weeks ago

No. We are not.

And no, they are not.

You don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
